Background on the case:
Based on a law that went into effect in 2003, prosecutors could charge David Temple on separate counts - one for the murder of his wife and one for the murder of her unborn child.
Belinda Temple was 8 months pregnant, a teacher. She complained to a friend that David was distant over her pregnancy, she put up shelves by herself in the baby room. David was off on a hunting trip. In reality he was having an extramarital affair and was with his gf. When she was found, she was crouching in a closet, a phone near her hand, where it's assumed she was hiding trying to call for help. She was shot in the head. The house had been made to look like a break in had occured. However, NOTHING was taken.

The murder is 1 week after her wedding anniversary.
6 days before her murder, hubby and gf "break it off" -
3 days before murder, David Temple tells gf he loves her.
David Temple is claiming he's innocent. He later marries the gf.
